Part 1. Student commute modal split

Has the institution gathered data about student commuting behavior?:
Yes

Total percentage of students that use more sustainable commuting options as their primary mode of transportation:
100

A brief description of the method(s) used to gather data about student commuting:
No formal data collection methods were needed. 100% of students live on campus, which is small in size, making walking the way students travel within the campus area.

Part 2. Employee commute modal split

Has the institution gathered data about employee commuting behavior?:
Yes

Total percentage of employees that use more sustainable commuting options as their primary mode of transportation:
36

A brief description of the method(s) used to gather data about employee commuting:
36 of the faculty members and staff live on campus (or in College housing). Of these, 34 primarily walk while on campus. One faculty member, who lives at the Agroecological Research Center, often drives his car to campus as does the faculty member who lives in College-owned housing in Las Vegas. Given a lack of public transportation and other modes of transport to campus, it is assumed the remaining 59 employees also use single occupancy vehicles.
